The Brave and the Bold #91

Nick Cardy's cover for this 1970 team-up says it all with striking efficiency: Batman and Black Canary have been knocked from a motorcycle and left sprawled across the road at the Gotham city limits, beneath a sign ominously renamed "Welcome to Fun City." In the dramatic background, a dark figure strides away down a red-lit highway toward the city skyline, cape billowing, suggesting the danger is far from over. With Bob Haney scripting and Cardy handling both art and inks, The Brave and the Bold #91 pairs the Dark Knight with one of DC's most capable heroines for what promises to be a tense, noir-tinged adventure.
